What gauge of wire from the panel to the outlet would a 240V 52A rated welder require?
#6 You can use number 6 copper if you wish,you will definitely not overload it or you can figure the wire size by the duty cycle. If your welder has a 100 duty cycle rating use wire good for 52 amps or a number 6. If the duty cycle is 90, multiply the amp draw by .95 x 52 or 49.4 amps or a number 8 wire. These are a few more of the duty cycle multipliers 80 duty cycle(.89) 70 duty cycle(.84) 60 duty cycle(.78)Duty cycle takes in to account that most welders do not weld continously at maximum welder output all the time.

Can you install a 240v outlet for a stick welder near your panel if it has slots available for a circuit breaker?
Simple answer is yes. But you need to first determine if your breaker can handle it, not just because you have an empty slot. You have to total up amps being used and check rating for your box. If it can handle it then it is a sinch to install
How do I wire a single phase 120 amp 230 volt flux and mig welder to a 200 amp panel?
It is very likely that the 120A current you quote is the output current. Check your Welder Box and look at the input current. It is likely around 30 Amps. To wire a 30A circuit you will need 10 gauge wire and it is likely 3 conductots + ground. You will need a 230V Breaker. Connect the black and red wires from the 10 gauge cable to the breaker, white wire to neutral and ground to ground.
Can a outlet box be mounted to electrical panel?
No, an outlet box cannot be mounted directly to an electrical panel. Electrical panels have specific requirements for clearance and access, and mounting an outlet box to it would violate those safety guidelines. It is recommended to install outlets separately on the wall near the panel if needed.
Wiring circuit for 240V welder with 3 prong plug pulling 6-3 wire do you need to replace welder cable with a 4 lead cable-plug or can you avoid the white lead to wire a 3 prong outlet red-black-green?
It depends on the welder. If it doesn't need 120V you can just put a wire nut on the neutral and wire a 240V plug. If it needs 120/240V you need the 4 prong plug. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work ANDalways use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.
When the test button is pressed on a gfci outlet it sparks and trips two breakers in the main panel What could be the problem?
The sparking and tripping of two breakers in the main panel could indicate a wiring or grounding issue within the GFCI outlet. It's important to have a qualified electrician inspect and repair the outlet to prevent any potential hazards or damage.
